My Mom had me pick out some Easter dresses for the girls that would be from her and Dad. We looked at several stores and ALL of the fancy Easter dresses were sleeveless. So, Aubrey picked out her favorite and I was planning on having them wear cardigans with them. The only problem with cardigans is that it is too warm in the Summer to wear sweaters. So, I decided to try and make some sleeves. (BTW I like to play around with the sewing machine, but I am definitely NOT a seamstress!)
I couldn't believe it when I found the exact same sheer overlay fabric at Joanne's. It even came with a finished edge, so I didn't have to worry about how to make it look finished. Anyway, I was so pleased with how the sleeves turned out, that I had to share.
